Books

The "first" Myth Adventures series was written by Asprin alone for the now-defunct publishing house The Donning Company under their Starblaze Graphics imprint (with the last two published by Meisha Merlin, who picked up the contract from Donning). All twelve are collected in Robert Asprin's Myth Adventures Volume 1 and Volume 2 (Meisha Merlin, 2006/2007).

The "new" Myth Adventures series was co-authored with Jody Lynn Nye. As of 2010 it includes one collection and six novels.

  • Myth-Told Tales (2003)
  • Myth Alliances (2003)
  • Myth-Taken Identity (2004)
  • Class Dis-Mythed (2005)
  • Myth-Gotten Gains (2006)
  • Myth-Chief (2008)
  • Myth-Fortunes (2008)

After Myth-Gotten Gains, Meisha Merlin went out of business and publication of hardcover/trade editions changed hands again, this time to Wildside Press. Robert Asprin died in May 2008, but Nye intended that year to write the books which she and Asprin had planned ("We had big plans"). According to the series website, the publisher of mass market editions Ace Books has commissioned two.

In 2010, Baen Books published a collection of Asprin's short myth-stories under the title Myth-Interpretations. ISBN 1-4391-3390-5

Famous quotes containing the word books:

    Most books belong to the house and street only, and in the fields their leaves feel very thin. They are bare and obvious, and have no halo nor haze about them. Nature lies far and fair behind them all. But this, as it proceeds from, so it addresses, what is deepest and most abiding in man. It belongs to the noontide of the day, the midsummer of the year, and after the snows have melted, and the waters evaporated in the spring, still its truth speaks freshly to our experience.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    I am absent altogether too much to be a suitable instructor for a law-student. When a man has reached the age that Mr. Widner has, and has already been doing for himself, my judgment is, that he reads the books for himself without an instructor. That is precisely the way I came to the law.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    What I am now warning the People of is, That the News-Papers of this Island are as pernicious to weak Heads in England as ever Books of Chivalry to Spain; and therefore shall do all that in me lies, with the utmost Care and Vigilance imaginable, to prevent these growing Evils.
    Richard Steele (1672–1729)
